I am currently using my professional mail ID (name@companysorta.com). Should I change this and use a normal mail ID( name@gmail.com)?
If you are early in the process, it is s a good idea to use a new email address only for the admissions process. That way your college emails don’t get mixed in with other junk email. I know a girl that missed an invite to a scholarship interview weekend because she didn’t see the email.
